It kind of functions like a shopping cart / product calculator.
I want to be able to physically save a file with text data (to be reloaded later) in a directory on the computer. the app is running form a projector on windows.

How do I change it to do just that.

View 11 RepliesSo i have an external text file organized like this:
/* $file: data.txt */
&title0=Sacrum
&detail0=Detail text for Sacrum

There are 28 of these 'title' and 'detail' pairs. The 'title' text is to fill a dynamic text box and the 'detail' to fill another dynamic text box depending on which section the user is mousing over.
